The Invisalign Orthodontist

The title or designation of Orthodontist or Orthodontic Specialists can only be use by a dentist who has not only completed college and 4 years of dental school, but has also completed an additional 2 to 3 years full-time residency program accredited by the ADA of advanced education in orthodontics. After receiving the additional years of training and education, an orthodontist has learned the skills that are required to treat the misalignment of teeth and facial development with Invisalign, braces, retainers and all the other methods. Only a dentist that has completed the additional years of training and education after dental school is an orthodontist.
